MTG. 2/19/02 AWARD CONTRACT TO PROVIDE POOL IMPROVEMENTS AT THE CARLSBAD SWIM
DEPT. PWlGS COMPLEX - CONTRACT NO. FACO2-I2
c
DEPT. Hu. r I
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt Resolution No. dm& -05% accepting the bid of $96,021 and awarding the
contract to Gardner Pool Plastering, Inc. to provide pool improvements at the
Carlsbad Swim Complex, Contract No. FAC02-012.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
The pool at the Swim Complex is over 20 years old. The plaster pool shell was
replaced in 1991 with fiberglass. Unfortunately, there have been ongoing problems
with the fiberglass. Repairs to the pool shell are needed to ensure the safety of
swimmers and prevent structural damage. Specifically, the repairs include removing
the existing fiberglass and plaster and replacing it with a new plaster finish, removing
and replacing ceramic tiles and floor inlets as well as rust repairs.
On December 18, 2001, City Council approved contract documents and special
provisions, and authorized the City Clerk to advertise for bids for this project. One
bid was received, opened, witnessed and recorded on February 4, 2002. The bid
was reviewed by the staff and is as follows:
Gardner Pool Plastering, Inc. $88,632
Even though only one bid was received, the amount is well below the architect’s
estimated cost of $100,000. In fact, there is enough money in the budget to include
the alternative bid of $7,389 for the silicone plaster additive. Plaster can succumb to
algae growth and metal stains because the material is of a porous nature. The
additive closes the pores and minimizes damages to the plaster. Staff is
recommending the alternative bid be included in the total bid price. Therefore, the
total cost for this project is $96,021. The contractor’s registration and bonds are in
order and references are satisfactory. Contract documents are on file in the General
Services of Public Works office.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
This project has been determined to be exempt from environmental review per
CEQA- Class 1 (c), Minor alteration of existing facility.
FISCAL IMPACT
The project cost is $96,021. Sufficient funds are available in the Recreation-Aquatics
Capital Outlay budget for this project.
